I see strong parallels between gentrifiers and climate change deniers. You think that you can muscle through any ill effects of your actions. Turns out- you are both wrong.
So keep pricing people out of the city… and see how that plays out for you.
How about getting off your ass and getting a job. Excuses are for losers.
I guess the pp meant when gentrifiers moved into the neighborhood, they should expect to be shot at. No one paid any attention when shooting occurs in non-gentrified neighborhoods.

Not PP. I am also a liberal democrat and want more police... and prisons (for violent offenders).

Actually, guns cause people to shoot others.

That certainly is interesting research, and I do believe that guns and other types of weapons can elicit automatic aggression (the effect in the real world is probably rather small, though). However, less than 1 in 10 crimes committed with a gun is with a gun that was legally purchased: https://bjs.ojp.gov/content/pub/pdf/suficspi16.pdf. This suggests that, in the vast majority of cases, people who intend to commit crimes procure guns through illegal methods rather than vice versa
No one cares whether the gun was purchased illegally or legally? The fact that it exists at all is the issue at hand here.
Do you live your entire life according to the emotionalist delusion that you can just wish away “evil” inanimate objects? Hysterical confabulations don’t solve crime problems (or any other problems). Lock up criminals. It ended the crack wars. It will end the gang wars on the street now too. Federal and local prosecution for violent and firearm related crimes, with consecutive sentencing. But there’s no stomach for that.
Fine. I’ll concede that guns aren’t the problem *IF* you’ll admit that you simply want every Black male in the country put in prison.
Deal?
Why would a black male get put in prison simply because guns exist? He would only get put in prison if he used the gun in a crime. Your statement makes no sense.
Because gun nutters are the most racist people on the planet. That’s why.
Yeah, the huge numbers of first-time gun owners in the past 2 years who are black, hispanic, and asian. Legal, law-abiding gunowners. They're all racist.![]()

Defund the Police! Really smart move.
Shooting or crime every month. Remember that when people say they want "affordable" housing.
Great. I’m sure the tons of low income housing at Res 13 will help the local crime rate.
